Race Report: 2026 Michelin 12H Spa-Francorchamps

Monday 20th April 2026

The No. 81 Era Motorsport Ferrari 296 GT3 came into the second event of the 24H Series European Series eager to build off the progress made during the season-opener at Mugello.
Dwight Merriman, Ryan Dalziel, Oliver Bryant, and Jake Hill all took turns practising on what they considered one of their favourite tracks in the world across Wednesday and Thursday ahead of Friday's qualifying session, where the crew put the car P11 on the grid heading into the start of Part 1 on Saturday.

Unfortunately, only a few hours into the race, an on-track incident damaged the car beyond reasonable repair, and the team decided to retire for the rest of the weekend.

The crew is set to rebuild and return for the third round of the championship at the 12H Paul Ricard, 5-7 June, 2026.
